Avatar Epc

[Eckhart Tolle]

Has anyone ever heard of Avatar epc? Apparently it's a Network Marketing company that sells Enlightenment and it seems to be actually legit. I would like to hear other peoples opinions there's some red flags seeing that the guy who created it is a former scientologist, however they're selling Enlightenment which our entire society is set up to ignore so of course it'll have bad publicity. 

It seems amazing though.

Just went to their website and it looks a little like Scientology.  If it gives you new ways of seeing things, new insights what so ever go for it, why not. But always be careful with someone selling enlightenment. It's not like getting more self-confident or financially wealthy. There simply is no way to get enlightenment. You either awake someday or you don't. And there is nothing you can really do to help yourself with that.

That nearest you can come with helping yourself to wake up - I'd say - is to investigate very deeply what is going on in your mind and around you. But even that is phony. Even that you just do because you - your ego - wants this liberation. So in the end you just have to trust yourself to wake up someday. It'll probably come when you searched for a decade and finally give up. Just a guess.

It's the same with Scientology in my opinion. I have a good friend who is a member of it. She is a very beautiful, intellectual woman who is a model. When we meet she tells me what she is learning there and so on. And I really gotta say, they have some techniques that will free you from social conditioning, fear, ... just like a lot of old Asian disciplines. They really go in the same direction.

And I don't quite know yet whether being "clear" is really enlightenment or just a title for someone who is really free from a lot of bullshit belief. But here is the thing. What I always hear when I talk to her is a lot of fucking dogma, a lot vocabulary, a lot of plain belief that they take on. And this for me is just another rat race round for pumping up your ego with intellectual answers that trick you into believing you know how it is. Maybe I'm wrong because I don't know too much about it, but it seems to me that way a lot.

And that's why I always would be careful with someone selling you this stuff. It simply can't be sold. If it could be sold, I would write a book with simply one line: "You are it. Cheers!" And that would be enough. But you simply can't.

That's also why the old Asian traditions, religions and philosophies like Taoism or Zen don't give you something to believe. They just give instructions on how to see it for yourself. And that's why - in my opinion - you will have much more success with something like Zen then just another product for your ego.

But I might be wrong here, because I don't know much about these products. Just a intuition that resulted in a little rant. Be welcomed and have fun exploring
